 Some
five-star Amazon reviews of earlier editions:

“This book is a must have for GP trainees revising for the CSA. It is
cleverly structured into problems that patients present with and covers all the
areas that will be required for you in the CSA.”

“This is an excellent aid to preparing for the CSA exam. I particularly
like the scenarios given for role play that facilitate practising with a study
partner. I would recommend it for GP registrars, VTS groups and GP trainers.”
